Sir Chen Tuns; Liang Cheng, the Chinese Minister, in thanking the uni versity for bestowing a degree upon him. said it would not only be a source of sincere gratitude to the Em peror of China, but a stimulant to hondreds or even thousands of Chinese students to come to Yale for an educa tion. He said he would ever be proud to be a son of Yale, If only an adopted son. He looked ,upon Yale as a Na tional institution, because "a Yale' man practically runs the National Gov ernment" (referring to Secretary Taft.

FORTY FEET TDD BURTON SATS NEW YORK HAS MUCH LESS. any salmon :ot taken In water of that stream.- Survey of Coos Bay Will Probably Be Provided for in the Next Bill. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash ington, June 27. Senator Fulton, with oth er Pacific Coast Senators, has been flooded recently with letters demanding the pas sage through the House of the Fulton resolution authorizing the survey of the entrance of Coos Bay, with a view to pro viding a 40-foot channel across the bar. Senator Fulton again took the matter up with Chairman Burton, of the House riv ers and harbors committee, today, and was told, as on previous occasions, that the resolution will not now or here after be reported. Burton says it is absurd to talk about a 40-foot channel at Coos Bay. New York harbor does not have that depth, and Hamburg, Germany, one of the world's greatest harbors, has only 32 feet. Bur ton says Coos Bay has no population or commerce to Justify a 40-fOot channel, and for that -reason he never will consent to such a survey. When the river and har bor bill Is framed at the next session, the survey of some reasonable channel may be authorized. Senator Fulton today brought about the passage through the Senate of a bill cre ating the United States District Court in China, with a full complement of court officials. Before adjournment the bill will be signed. It having already passed the House. This is the bill which J. H. Brown, of Portland, has been pushing. In the main conference on the pure-food bill Fulton's amendment was adopted pro hibiting misbranding of canned salmon. After January 1 it will be unlawful to mark and sell as Columbia River salmon Public Building for Baker. WASHINGTON. June 27. The Senate public building committee today told Sen ator Fulton it would agree to appropriate J75.000 for a public building at Baker City, 15,000 to finish the grounds at Salem, and probably give $6500 for Eugene. The com mittee turned down the requests for build ings at Oregon City and La Grande. The- Secretary of the Interior has with drawn from entry 12,000 acres in town ships 1 and 2 north and south, ranees 15 and 16 east, for an additional reservoir for the Umatilla irrigation project. The House today passed Fulton's bill authorizing the issuance of patents to purchasers of grazing lands on the Uma tilla Indian Reservation, whenever they prove the lands are unfit for agriculture. W. N. Barrett, of Hillsboro, appointed to Annapolis Naval Academy by Senator Fulton, has passed the entrance examinations. Francisco will be a greater city in all ways," he said.

Things have settled themselves since our terrible disaster, capitalists are putting their money into rebuilding and enlarging and in beauti fying, and the people generally are exer cising a great degree of confidence In the city's future prosperity." Claus Spreckels, of San Francisco, who with his wife was in Chicago yesterday, thus expressed himself in discussing the future of his home city. AU financial interests, he said, although he spoke es pecially for the sugar interests, were firm in the belief that Ban Francisco would become the largest and most important port of entry in the Western Hemisphere.
